Every week in the UK at least twelve young people die of undiagnosed heart conditions.

Since its formation in 1995, CRY has been working to reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death (YSCD). 

CRY supports young people diagnosed with potentially life-threatening cardiac conditions and offers bereavement support to families affected by YSCD.

CRY promotes and develops heart screening programmes, funds medical research and distributes medical information written by leading cardiologists for the general public.

CRY funds fast track referral, screening and cardiac pathology services at leading UK hospitals.
